The white wine Riesling Smaragd Hochrain, vintage 2013 from the winery Weingut Franz Hirtzberger has been rated in 2014 with 96 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Riesling from the region Wachau in Austria.
Light yellow-green colour. Still somewhat restrained, fine peach touch, a hint of honey blossom, subtle yellow tropical fruit, needs some air to develop. Juicy, white peach fruit, tightly woven, finesse-rich acidity, lemony touch on the finish, delicate style, good length, salty aftertaste, notes of apricots, a very fine food companion with good certain ageing potential.
